Excerpt from Designing Fate
A bad business, my boy; a very bad busi ness. I cannot tell you how sorry I am for you.' The old colonel stroked his white moustache and stared abstractedly at the matting. The clock on the mantelpiece of the colonel's work ing room in the bungalow ticked on, and the young man with the blue eyes, brown curly hair, and soldierly figure said never a word. His face was very grey, and there was a whole world of suffering in his eyes.
